But there won't be one major problem like Katrina....minimum looting.

Oh, and no school bus Nagan to screw things up either.

There has also been much better coordination between local, state and feds as a result of Katrina.

Sometimes people choose not to evacuate.

That happens with every hurricane.

Nagan is an idiot and had no clue what to do...along with politics in the mix. The politics had more to do with fed, state, and local not being able to work together than anything.

What people must understand is even if expected, there is no way for outsiders to help immediately after a large disaster. Supplies and people to help can be staged ahead of time, but obviously not in the area expected to be hit. So locals must be able to as much as possible deal with the situation until the area is safe to enter, and roads are cleared enough to enter. That is how it has to work. If local government is inept before, during, and after the disaster I have no idea how to solve that issue. Move?

The purpose of federal help is to HELP local and state governments because their resources, manpower will not likely be enough to deal with a large disaster over an extended time. The problem is now in some areas people seem to think when disaster hits the feds should magically appear within moments to fix everything.
